geedavee, Geez, I have no formal training. I am pretty much a hack compared to some of these other guys on here. Lubrication is the key! Drink heavily and wack the wood into submission. I just take each piece as it comes. I draw it out on the wood before I start to carve. I get inspiration from all these other kooks on here. Remember to carve deep to get detail. The one thing I see from a lot of carvers is that they don't pay attention to getting the right depth on the facial features. Buy good carving tool to start with and you'll be happy. Carve! Post! Drink! Repeat! Good Luck! --Tucson Tiki

I have been working on getting ready for the Bi-Annual Tucson 4th Ave Street fair. Had a cool sign painted on a sandwich board that I constructed. I will use it at my house after the show to sell my stuff. Carved a couple of quickies for the event and I am working on one more. Tucson will be a tough sell but I am stubbborn as hell and think I can do something in this town. I will be setting up a website soon to peddle my creations. Pictured are the two new additions and the last moai I did. Enjoy if you will. TT

wow, Tuscon,, with the detail and Smooth finish you are geyying on your stuff you should do very well at your show. Good luck (but somehow I don't think you'll need it!) on your show.

Good, look me up. I'll be set up in the beer garden at the Hut. That large moai will be amazing out front. I have talked to the owner about it. Costing around 30 grand to get it and move it. Big investment
